Marriage is a touching process, because the plot of this event is often used by artists in the preparation of their masterpieces. Even if you are a beginner artist, you can try to learn how to draw a bride and groom with a pencil or paints. Perhaps the idea of such a drawing will not only teach you how to use a pencil, but also inspire a work of art!
How to draw a bride
The bride is a person, and she has a certain anatomical shape.
- Using outline lines, outline where the bride should have a head, where is the torso, and where are the legs and arms. Make sure that the proportions of the body are observed correctly.
- Follow the composition: the figure of the bride should be approximately in the center of the sheet, and not at its edge.
- Also outline the outline of the silhouette of the girl in outline. Consider the anatomical features of the female figure.
- To understand how to draw a bride, it is not necessary to recall all the friends and strangers in a wedding dress. You can come up with the style of clothing that you like. This is your creation!
- Advice! If you have difficulty drawing legs, a fluffy skirt can even hide your legs with shoes. Try to correct the errors using the style of the dress.
- Draw the face and hair of the bride. Highlight the torso and dress lines.
- Erase the lines that were needed for the sketches.
Now you know how to draw a bride.
We draw the groom
If in the case of the bride it was possible to hide some errors behind the contour of a magnificent dress, then this trick will not work with the groom: you will have to try.
- As with the bride, use light lines to outline the silhouette of the groom next to the bride. Take into account the structural features of the man’s body. Check if the proportions of the body correspond to reality.
- Draw clothes. Consider the season and the solemnity of the event.
- Draw a face and hair.
- Erase the excess lines with the eraser.
Now you know how to draw a bride and groom together.
We supplement the general surroundings
Having figured out how to draw the bride and groom in stages, you need to create an interesting and festive atmosphere for them.
Choose for yourself which background you would like to draw. It can be a room or nature, the so-called plein air in the language of photographers. The easiest option is to draw a horizon line, a tree near the bride and groom and several bushes.
Imagine that the newlyweds are photographed in a park or in a pond.
Define the horizon line and draw it. Usually it runs in the middle of the sheet or slightly lower. Next, supplement the drawing with other elements surrounding the newlyweds.
Remember that not a single element, including people and animals, can start from the edge of the sheet - it looks messy and disrupts the composition.
The final stages of the drawing should be:
- The final drawing of all the main lines of the picture.
- Erasing the eraser of auxiliary lines.
- If it was planned that the drawing would be colored, or it was decided to make it colorful at the end of the work, then paint it with colored pencils or paints.
Please note that when working with watercolors, the outlines made with a pencil will be noticeable.
